Sucre video tour

I found this video on YouTube. It shows the sights of Sucre, such as the white colonial-style buildings and churches, as well as some of the typical streets. There are children in school uniform, and views of some of the many smaller parks.

Later the video shows an evening scene at the main plaza, as well as walls of tombs in the graveyard.

Finally there is a short recording in a taxi. Here you can see how the car has been modified from right- to left-hand-drive. The speedometer is clearly visible on the right of the car, although the stearing wheel is now on the left.

When translations go wrong: battered octopus rings

Another menu that has gone slightly wrong, seen on Lanzarote.

It should read “Tintenfischringe in Backteig” – ie. octopus rings in batter . The German word “Ausbackteig” doesn’t exist, but for me it implies something more like baking a cake than the batter mix that it is meant to be.

La Rueda II

La Rueda II is a so-called “Tex-Mex” restaurant in the old town of Puerto del Carmen. Although located in Avenida del Varadero, the actual entrance is situated in a side street on the other side (Virgen del Carmen, on the corner of Calle Lanzarote). Here you will usually be greeted by a member of staff outside the restaurant – even if you don’t go in, children will love the lollipop!

La Rueda II

The food is very good and one of the highlights must be the fajitas that come with the meat sizzling in an iron frying pan for you to roll up youself. This is actually one of the best value items on the menu.

The restaurant has a balcony overlooking the harbour with tables for all sizes. Closer to the edge of the balcony you can look down onto the bowling court, or just enjoy the view across the water towards Fuerteventura.

To book a table, call 928 515821.
